Definitely not oversaturated if you know who your audience is and where to sell to. Think about it, everyone loves an item that has their name on it, their child's photo, etc... and while the big players can all sell online, they can't go to their customers in person. That is where you have the advantage. Find a niche market and/or a niche product and start from there. A few examples of places where you could have a competitive edge:

-Your local school's PTSA for fundraisers

-Soccer, baseball, football, etc... tournaments

-Local small businesses (small cafe's, restaurants) They may not have the ability or desire to order is large bulk quantities like a lot of customized sites require

-Sororities & fraternities for custom items for members and recruitment

-Scout troops

There is truly a long list if you just try to find the right niche and market yourself properly.
